proper want of communication
Mr. Fox's boat arrived at the lake on Monday and was immedintelly put on. He reduced the monopoly at once ; charging diggers with 1 cwt. of swags Ll, and mer" chandise 1/5 per ton. Not having been that v,-u'-", I am unable to say how provisions ar--> i'u Hug, but persons I met at the Maraura say that lionr was selling at llccs' for Is. 6d per Ib. The quantity of drays now on the road will keep it to this for some time, unless a much larger population have come in, which is very likely, from the exodus that has taken place from the whole of the other fields. Mail communication is universally complained of, and if ibis alone was at once carried out, it would go far to keep the trade.
